My experience with GCP has been quite small , most of which have been with GKE and I find that to be good! What i hate though is more about the company , is what they project they are vs what they are https://theintercept.com&#x2

I think the policy swings from state to state. There are some states that are going big on renewables. In India , Thermal power is provided by NTPC (National Thermal Power Corporation) , when state power supplies dwindle , power is procure

This is so sad , elected governments also try and do this. The most liberal state in India (higher on a lot of HR indices) , tried to add in a law and got slapped on the wrists (may be election time tactic) https://trak.in/t

Sure thing , can happen (from federal or state). We had a communist reform in my state where implementation of the land act transferred land rights to the tillers in the 50's. So it is possible with an act of parliament or state law. I

India is not an Autocracy where a few million can be automagically teleported to another city where the PB has decided to build a factory. Do not think this is something that will happen in a few thousand years in India , for starters many

Should be more opt in rather than opt out. I know some Azure libraries do something similar , but with google , i do not want advertisements on youtube about "demand of AI engineers and self driving cars" because i use gcloud CLI

It is PaaS , you are locked down (just like a lot of other solutions.) The biggest problem we had with other no-SQL databases (we were high on interop and started with HBase / Phoenix ) is that over time the storage costs and operation

ADX is an extremely good timeseries data store. Integrates very easily without hassles into EventHub , Blobstore etc, and also has a very intuitive query language. (Though we could say AWS product integrate with Kinesis / S3 into RedS

Point taken! It was not so much about me , financials are not a stance for my living. Philosophical as it may sound , my worry is for the hand cart puller who walks all day in pretty hot sun here , or for that maid whose husband has lost h

Yeah! , that is why India is not (yet) a participant on RCEP. Given that I am in rural India , if protectionism saves someone from starvation , I am fine with it.

Sure , I am from India. The diary sector in India is largely unorganized , these are managed as daily livelihood for poor income families who have at best a few cows that provide them with livelihood. The co-operative sector in India menti

I had my rant about BSNL down below. BSNL by a far distance has to be the worst in terms of Customer service , which is sad because i know of brilliant engineers who joined as Junior Engineers in BSNL clearing PSC. Unless there is accountab

Customer service matters , quality of service matters. Jio & other players are pretty good at this. I had an earlier comment on my harrowing experience with BSNL Broadband!. Just crying foul on regulations (fair to a certain point) , do

This is very similar to what BSNL (the state telco) unions argue. The argument has been they got only 3G licenses when others got 4G , while there are some merits to it , let me tell you some examples on a common ground Broadband services.
